If you zoom in at the Kauffman Center you'll see a couple towers to the west of it that don't currently exist. Something from a previous study the architects forgot to remove from their downtown massing model?

The state appropriated $40 million for the estimated $100 million facility, and the school will have to raise the rest privately.

The building would house the schools of dentistry and medicine, the Data Science and Analytics Innovation Center, and the biomedical engineering program, UMKC said in a release. UMKC would use the first several floors, and additional floors may be made available to health-related tenants, the release says. The school’s spaces will include clinics, simulation labs, dental emergency services and greater interprofessional collaboration.

“A united medical and dental building will be a signature facility, as there is only one such institution in the country with this combined learning and clinical environment,” UMKC Chancellor Mauli Agrawal said in the release.

The $120 million building will be called the Healthcare Innovation and Delivery Building, and it will house new dental teaching clinics and more medical school teaching facilities. Also inside will be the UMKC Health Equity Institute, the university’s Data Science and Analytics Innovation Center, and its new biomedical engineering program, according to a release.
